Trump says NATO countries should 'reimburse' US for defense costs

11/07/2018

In comments likely to alarm Mrs May, Trump acknowledged the "turmoil" facing her government but said he was nevertheless looking forward to "an interesting time" when he visits the United Kingdom later this week.

Following the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation summit, Trump is expected to travel to London, where he'll meet with Queen Elizabeth, and then he'll head to Helsinki for his first formal one-on-one meeting with Putin on July 16.

Trump has denied any collusion with Russian Federation.

After Putin told Trump that White House advisers were trying to interfere, Trump reportedly called those advisers "stupid people", and told Putin he "shouldn't listen to them".

"I would like to thank President Trump for his leadership on defence spending". The EU hit back with tariffs on products including motorcycles and orange juice.

Tusk also sought to "dispel" the argument that the USA alone protects Europe, noting that Europe was the first to respond on a large scale when the US was attacked on September 11, 2001 and has lost 870 soldiers in the ensuing war in Afghanistan.

In addition to stating that his meeting with Putin could be his "easiest" during his European trip, Trump also wouldn't say whether he considered the Russian leader a friend or foe. The two are due to meet in Helsinki on July 16 following Mr Trump's visit to the United Kingdom at the end of the week.
